MURPHY CITRUS NURSERY, INC.
PERRY, FLORIDA

Murphy Citrus Nursery, Inc., founded in 2007 and incorporated under the Florida Models of Doing Business with a filing number P07000014656, operates out of Perry, FL. The company is nestled in Taylor County and falls under the category of Domestic Profit Corporation (DOMP). Guided by the vision of its founders Billy W. Murphy as President and Valerie S. Murphy as Vice President, Murphy Citrus Nursery strategically positions itself within the broader agricultural sector known for high-value fruit, vegetable, and specialty crop production. The nursery stands about 70 miles away from commercial citrus growing areas, positioned in a unique setting that combines isolation with pine timber landscapes near Tallahassee, Florida. This location was deliberately selected in response to challenges like citrus canker, inspiring a focus on the production of citrus seedlings outside traditional growing regions. This initiative aligns with evolving agricultural practices and regulations established for citrus nursery operations during the late 2000s. With its roots traced back several years prior when new regulations came into effect, Murphy Citrus Nursery has cultivated a niche in serving an essential part of Florida's diversified agriculture production sector. Having started to cater to clients such as Indian River area growers, including Billy Murphy’s own citrus-growing relatives, the nursery capitalizes on advance orders which serve as the industry's lifeblood. The company actively engages with citrus growers and stakeholders through their dedicated website at murphycitrusnursery.com and maintains open channels via multiple phone lines: (850) 672-0893, (352) 671-1909, (888) 957-2226, and (850) 492-7196. Murphy Citrus Nursery continues to fulfill its role in the agricultural landscape by aligning its operations with Florida’s significant contributions to national agriculture production, reflecting an adaptive and resilient strategy within this essential industry.
